As part of the Light Division created to act as the advance guard of Wellington's army, the 95th Rifles are the first into battle and the last out. Fighting, thieving and raping their way across Europe, they are clearly no ordinary troops. The 95th are in fact the first British soldiers to take aim at their targets, to take cover when being shot at, to move tactically by fire and manoeuvre. And by the end of the six-year campaign they have not only proved themselves the toughest fighters in the army, they have also - at huge personal cost - created the modern notion of the infantryman.

( Faber & Faber 2003, Hardback. ) Urban has produced a fascinating account of the 95th Rifles in the Peninsular war, with a final chapter covering Waterloo and later developments of the 95th. I'd recommend the book if you're at all interested in this period of history, military history in general or a fan of the Richard Sharpe books. As Urban also explains, the Rifles were the first units in the British Army to take aim at specific targets, to take cover when being shot at, to move tactically by fire and manoeuvre. In short, to act like a modern day infantry soldier. The book itself is in a very good overall condition. DJ good. Slightly rubbed and bumped along its top edge. Spine and covers all very good indeed. Pages tight, very slightly tanned, but unmarked. We offer a no questions asked returns and refunds policy on book value if returned within thirty days of delivery.
